Episode Summary
  
[x] Remove Ad
In their search for those that can help in their fight against the Federation, Dayna makes contact with a scientist her father once worked with. She finds he is now working on a Federation project to create radiation resistant creatures to act as shock troops in radioactive areas, in a time of war. The scientist, named Justin, has succeeded in creating such animals, but they are now becoming rebellious. However, Justin has no interest in joining Dayna’s resistance group, just as he doesn’t want anything to do with the Federation anymore. He does, however, have strong personal feelings for Dayna.

Commissioner Sleer (Servalan) learns of their attempt, and tracks them down and is able to capture Dayna. Now the team must rescue Dayna, or risk the location of their base being discovered. However, Servalan wants more than just the location of their base; she also wants Justin and his research, too.
